About the tour
During this fascinating tour you will visit some of the most spectacular religious buildings of Colombia. Find out how religion was embraced by Colombian society in history.
The first stop is in the center where you can find the first and oldest chapel of Bogotá, Iglesia de San Francisco. The guide will tell you more about the important aspects of culture and religion and the origin of the church. Despite the fact that the church has existed for more than 500 years, it has remained very well intact.
Then walk along the street to the central Bolivar square where you can find the Prime Cathedral, the Cathedral of Colombia. The cathedral has an area of 5300 square meters, the largest in Colombia and one of the largest in South America. Did you know that this cathedral was built four times in the same place? Why? Find out during the tour!
A bit further in the city you will find the Del Carmen church, where the third stop of the tour takes place. This church was declared as a national monument in 1993 because of its historical significance, originality, architectural value and invaluable artistic wealth. It is built in a Florentine Gothic style that can be found both inside and outside in the beautiful architecture.
Finally you visit the church Divino Niño. This is the epicenter of belief in the image of the divine child, considered one of the most religious icons of Colombia. Every sunday morning there is special mass in the church where thousands of Catholics come together to listen to the mass.
The guide will tell you in both Spanish and English all about the Catholic churches you visit during the tour. Feel free to ask questions if you are interested in certain topics and want to learn more about them. There is also plenty of time to walk around and take pictures.
